“Jesus says, ‘I go to prepare a place for you.’ (John 14:2) Brethren, He will do
it well, for He knows all about us.

He knows what will give us the most happiness,—and what will best develop all our
spiritual faculties forever.

He loves us, too, so well that, as the preparing is left to Him, I know that He 
will prepare us nothing second-rate, nothing that could possibly be excelled.

We shall have the best of the best, and much of it. We shall have all that even 
His great heart can give us.

Nothing will be stinted, for, as He is preparing it, it will be a right royal and
divine preparation.

If, when the prodigal came back to his father, there was the preparation of the 
fatted calf, and the music and dancing, and the gold ring and the best robe, what
will be the preparation when we do not come home as prodigals, but as the bride 
prepared for her husband, or as the beloved children, without spot, or wrinkle, 
or any such thing, coming home to the Father who shall see His own image in us, 
and rejoice over us with singing?

It is a grand place that Christ prepares, for never was there another such a lordly
host as He is.

It is a mansion of delights that He prepares, for never was there another architect
with thought so magnificent as His, and never were other hands so skilled at quarrying
living stones, and putting them one upon another, as His hands have ever been.

This thought ought to cheer us much. It must be something very wonderful that Christ
prepares as a fit place for His people.”
